I don't care if you (or people of your kind) take me serious. Simply because I don't take you serious. Within open discussion groups, I respect and take serious (on a professional level) only those who stay in-topic and in-context. Those who *not* bombard me with tons of irrelevant details, just to cover their own inablitiy or ignorance, or simply just to have to say something in a lonely evening. I respect people which have the discipline to stay unbiased, even if they have possible negative personal feelings against me (e.g. because the dislike mey *personal* writing style, which is part of my individuality.). I respect people which understand that there is a difference between "analytic ability" and "knowledge", and that knowledge can many times reduce the analytic ability, thus it must be assimilated with care. I respect them and take them serious, because those are the people which can evolve a system (like a programming language) in an efficient way. - Please! Stay in-topic and in-context - or stay out of the topics. You owe this not only to me, but to every current and future reader of the archives. - If you have an unresistable need to express yourself, simply open a new topic with an "[OT]" (off-topic) marker, e.g.: [OT] The unbelieavable attitude of Mr. Ilias Lazaridis and write whatever you like. It's far more professional than to destroy a clearly technical thread with 80% irrelevant content. . -- http://lazaridis.com
